This was a great hotel. We chose a harbor view room and it did not disappoint. The Staff were wonderful, breakfast buffet was delicious, location was perfect.
This hotel was spotlessly clean and we had a great view of the opera house! Breakfast was one of the best I’ve had at a hotel and we were a short walk to the cruise terminal. Perfect spot!
Room was clean, it was the perfect location close to
the cruise ship terminal, staff was friendly they held our suit cases while we ventured out for a tour of Sydney.

Clean, great location. Rooms more than a little tired.
we went there to catch a night performance in the opera house, and we walked to and from the venue as it was a warm clear night,and very enjoyable. This hotel is a ideally located for this and as it is in the middle of the rocks historical precinct offers lots of trendy little shops and diners
